Tickle Cove Pond Liedtext Deutsche Übersetzung

Tickle Cove Pond as performed by Great Big Sea
Tickle Cove Pond as performed by Great Big Sea
In cuttin and haulin in frost and in snow
Beim Schneiden und Schleppen bei Frost und Schnee
we're up against troubles that few people know
we're up against troubles that few people know
It's only by courage and patience and grit
Es geht nur durch Mut, Geduld und Entschlossenheit
and eatin plain food that we keep ourselves fit
und einfache Kost zu essen, die uns fit hält
The hard and the easy we take as they come
Das Schwere und das Leichte nehmen wir, wie sie kommen
C walk down to Am D
C. Gehen Sie hinunter zu Am D
and when ponds freeze over we shorten our runs
und wenn Teiche zufrieren, verkürzen wir unsere Läufe
to hurry my haulin with spring coming on
um meine Beute zu beeilen, wenn der Frühling naht
I near lost me a mare out on Tickle Cove Pond
Ich hätte am Tickle Cove Pond beinahe eine Stute verloren
CHORUS:
CHOR:
Lay hold William Oldford, lay hold William White
Halten Sie William Oldford fest, halten Sie William White fest
Lay hold of the cordage and pull all your might
Lay hold of the cordage and pull all your might
Lay hold of the bowline and pull all you can
Fassen Sie die Bugleine und ziehen Sie so viel Sie können
And give me a lift with poor Kit on the pond
Und nimm mich mit zum armen Kit auf dem Teich
I knew that the ice grew weaker each day
I knew that the ice grew weaker each day
But still took the risk and kept haulin away
But still took the risk and kept haulin away
One evening in April bound home with a load
Eines Abends im April fuhr ich mit einer Ladung nach Hause
my mare showed some halting against the ice road
Meine Stute zeigte einiges Stocken auf der vereisten Straße
She knew more than I did as matters turned out
She knew more than I did as matters turned out
C walk down to Am D
C. Gehen Sie hinunter zu Am D
Been lucky for me had I joined her in doubt
Been lucky for me had I joined her in doubt
She turned round her head with tears in her eyes
She turned round her head with tears in her eyes
As if she were sayin "You're risking our lives"
Als würde sie sagen: „Du riskierst unser Leben“
All this I ignored with a whip handle blow
All this I ignored with a whip handle blow
For man is a stupid dumb creature you know
For man is a stupid dumb creature you know
And the very next moment the pond gave a sigh
Und schon im nächsten Moment seufzte der Teich
and up to our necks went poor Kitty and I
und bis zum Hals gingen die arme Kitty und ich
And if I had taken wise Kitty's advice
Und wenn ich den Rat der klugen Kitty befolgt hätte
C walk down to Am D
C. Gehen Sie hinunter zu Am D
I ne'er would have made that short cut on the ice
Diese Abkürzung hätte ich auf dem Eis nie gemacht
Poor creature she's dead, poor creature she's gone
Arme Kreatur, sie ist tot, arme Kreatur, sie ist weg
I'll ne'er get my mare out of Tickle Cove Pond
I'll ne'er get my mare out of Tickle Cove Pond
I raised an alarm you could hear for a mile
I raised an alarm you could hear for a mile
and neighbours showed up in a very short while
und innerhalb kürzester Zeit tauchten Nachbarn auf
You can always rely on the Oldfords and Whites
You can always rely on the Oldfords and Whites
To render assistance in all your bad plights
To render assistance in all your bad plights
To help a kind neighbour is part of their lives
To help a kind neighbour is part of their lives
C walk down to Am D
C. Gehen Sie hinunter zu Am D
The same can be said for their children and wives
Das Gleiche gilt auch für ihre Kinder und Frauen
And with the rope fastened around the mare's breast
Und mit dem Seil um die Brust der Stute befestigt
William White for a shanty song made a request
William White für ein Shanty-Lied hat eine Anfrage gestellt
There was no time for thinkin no time for delay
There was no time for thinkin no time for delay
C walk down to Am D
C. Gehen Sie hinunter zu Am D
Straight from his heart came this song right away
Dieses Lied kam ihm direkt aus dem Herzen
